          ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Officially, running back Latavius Murray practiced in a limited fashion on Wednesday, his first action since suffering a turf toe injury at the Baltimore Ravens on Oct. 2 that kept him out of the past two games.

          Also, right tackle Menelik Watson, who last played in Week 3 at the Tennessee Titans on Sept. 25, returned to practice.

          Meanwhile, injury report mainstays Matt McCants and Clive Walford were not on the report Wednesday.

          Nor was defensive end Mario Edwards Jr., seen during the portion of practice open to the media.
